What's Punk's rear end video about? Why does it exist ... why is it on WWE.com?

After leaving the company, Punk gave a podcast interview where he talked about having a big lump on his butt from a staph infection. The video was made and uploaded to discredit him, as there is no lump visible in the footage.

Everyone will say “looks sweet”

I sit down, another drink

Has there been a woman's tag team title match this year? Those belts that can be defended on 4 different shows.

The last title match was TLC because Asuka has been feuding with Becky since then till like last week.

So, WWE as a business is garbage.

Money in the Bank is one of their few remaining PPVs which still remains entertaining.

MitB this year is in my city.

Is it ethnical to wait and see the bottom drop out on tickets on StubHub and then go? Or, gently caress 'em, don't bother?

Do what makes you happy, if nothing else, you'll get to see two ladder matches.

How could anyone possibly care about this Riott Squadd feud? They were all jobbers as a team and continued to be jobbers after they broke up and now they're all fighting each other.

I asked a similar question once and iirc some people like them because they performed above the level they were pushed at.

there will be a terrible finish involving Taker and the OC anyway.

There will be 10 minutes of middling one on one with AJ and Black then the OC will beat up Black 3 on 1, Taker will show up and destroy all three, he puts Black on top of AJ for the win.

It would have just shoved the problem down the line, likely in front of a much more hostile crowd. Now they have time to change up some aspects of Shayna.

Even if the Mania match is a disappointment, as it likely will be, you're still better off having a good build and a bad match instead of a bad build and a bad match. If you book it right you can at least start off with a crowd that's into it instead of having the entire match be an uphill battle. Also, I doubt Shayna could significantly change how she wrestles from now until Mania even if WWE would want her to, the time for that was in NXT and it didn't happen.

He had a decent length tenure in the NWO in WCW before he went to WWE. He was sort of the NWO representative in the midcard there from my understanding.

Even with Becky out there in some capacity, I don't know how they'd get the crowd into it. I would say the tag match will go last since at least you have a lot of good workers in there who can deliver big spots but I can't see them going off air to Miz and Morrison standing tall.
